One of the friends that I got onto Bitcoin lost his phone and he never saved his seed phrase. It's just gone now.

Yesterday another friend got a new phone and was angry with me and he didn't have access to his wallet. Today he messaged me saying that he had found his backup. I just helped him restore the wallet.

I hope he learned his lesson.

Long story short, I don't think I'm never going to onboard anyone onto Bitcoin again. People just tend to lose their shit; and don't say that it's a contribution to the scarcity.

Seedless backups are they way to go for noobs. For small amounts check Envoy wallet. For larger amounts check Bitkey.
